**What happens when the career you studied for isn't the path you're meant to follow? And when the world doesn't always have a clear place for all the parts of who you are?**
In this episode, Coral talks about activism, identity, career reinvention, bisexual visibility, queer inclusion and the importance of learning to embrace every part of yourself.
Coral studied art history and began her professional life working in museums. But a growing concern about animal welfare eventually led her into activism—and ultimately into a career dedicated to creating social change.
She also shares what it means to be bisexual in a world where people often want to use simple categories, why bisexual people can experience a particular kind of invisibility, and what it feels like to have to explain your identity again and again.
In this episode:
- Career reinvention and finding meaningful work
- Animal rights and ethical activism
- Veganism and conscious choices
- Activist burnout and self-care
- LGBTQ+ inclusion and belonging
- Queer bachata and challenging gender roles
Ultimately, this is a conversation about belonging to a cause, to a community, to your body, and most importantly, to yourself. Because you don't have to choose just one version of who you are. You can wear them all.
